We are testing PimCore limits for storing and managing all multilingual product information which is currently hosted in other PIM software. We are using few languages which are not included in PimCore Admin language list (i.e. Finnish).
As you know, usually the technical specification table of the product description consist of two parts: 1) the attribute label and 2) the attribute value. That is how it works in EAV structured systems, like Magento.
Few examples, what I meant exactly:
Product type: Computer
Color: Brown
USB ports: 4
Attribute values can be translated, by using objects with localizable fields, but the question is - what is the proper way to manage translations of labels itself ("Product type", "Color", "USB Ports" from my example)? This information also should be published on the product page (and translated).
What I understood from other discussions here, that Admin translation is not an option, in cases when language which is used (in our scenario Finnish) is not supported by default.
Shared translations might be an option, but how then to automate this process (and put in workflow of localization)? How to add untranslated object labels automatically in Shared translation table and give a start to "translation" workflow?
Also sometimes just Class data component Labels and Options need to be translated as maintain all the attributes of products as objects seems unnecessary, in cases when very simple attribute is being used (i.e. Usb ports: 4).
Can anyone recommend the proper approach for this kind of translations?
Thank you in advance!
